2017 Map of Corvallis

About this map

Corvallis and the neighboring community of Philomath sit at the confluence of the Willamette River and the Marys River, a landscape defined by collegiate expansion and timber-era industry. The sprawling campus of Oregon State University dominates the central portion of the city, while the surrounding hills like Witham Hill and Bald Hill show the residential growth pressing into the western elevations. Traces of the region's industrial past are evident in the managed water features such as Clemens Log Pond and Larson Log Pond west of the city center. For those tracing local history, several prominent burial sites are recorded, including Benton Cem, Saint Marys Cem, and Mount Union Cem. The map detail extends south to the Corvallis Municipal Airport and follows the complex braids of the river around Kiger Island and John Smith Island, where the Middle Channel Willamette River and West Fork Booneville Channel separate the fertile lowlands.
